She will stick get hand out to try to touch someone though, likes to put her palm on them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431486 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 14:28:54 +0000 lemondrop 431486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It took him about 10.5 months, he is very independent and only started when we worked on teaching him "up". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431370 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 13:38:28 +0000 Mrs. Pen 431370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bree72: bahaha cute!</p> <p>DS is 9 months and has been doing it at least two months though mostly with DH, more recently with me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431350 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 13:31:00 +0000 pelikila 431350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably around 9 months to a year. He would cry but wouldn't really reach until then. Now that he is almost 2 we get a lot of "up please" or trying to climb us to get in our arms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431321 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 13:18:56 +0000 mrs. wagon 431321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: omg this just happened to us too, just yesterday!!! that tooth is RAZOR SHARP!!! I was like ow ow ow, and she just kept biting down harder and actually almost started to cry when she saw my face!!!! lol!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431316 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 13:17:53 +0000 mediagirl 431316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: oh yes, that is definitely close. :) Know what's fun? I know you have been through this with Wagon Jr but it was new for me - the time she reached out, grabbed my hand and bit down on my finger - WITH HER NEW TOOTH! OW! Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431310 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 13:15:15 +0000 mrs. wagon 431310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: gives a whole new meaning to "bite me".... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431308 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 13:15:01 +0000 mrs. wagon 431308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: if I put my hand near her face, LMW will reach out and grab it with both hands and try to put my fingers in her mouth. So.... that's close... right??!??! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431303 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 13:14:03 +0000 mediagirl 431303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: awww haha! I'm so excited for her to reach for me. I swear she wants to sometimes. She looks at me expectantly like, "Pick me up, Mom!" But she doesn't have the arms working with that yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431299 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 13:12:25 +0000 mrs. wagon 431299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Any day now! and he's almost 3. Haha. He pretty much never reaches for us, even when he's sad or hurt. Now that he talks he just sits there and demands "pick me up please!" I recently taught him how to "hug and squeeze" though. I guess that's pretty close, but I had to wait 3 years!</p> <p>I'm hoping LMW will reach out for me because she's much more cuddly than WJ ever was! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431228 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 12:42:31 +0000 Chastenet 431228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Darn my LO is not quite 4 months so I guess I have to wait awhile still... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-431195 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 12:28:59 +0000 babynumber1 431195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just this past weekend.

He reaches for me, DH, and MIL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-430881 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 10:42:20 +0000 BananaPancakes 430881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: We always joke that "she's not family, yet," so BIL better watch out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-430844 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 10:34:53 +0000 winniebee 430844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bree72: HAHAHA </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-430838 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 10:34:04 +0000 BananaPancakes 430838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe around 6.5 months. He also reaches for his daddy and my BIL's girlfriend. He's kind of in love with her, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-430824 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 10:29:16 +0000 winniebee 430824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not yet....and he's 6.5 months. But he's also a very independent baby and generally doesn't really love being cuddled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-reaching-for-you-1#post-430784 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 10:17:45 +0000 mediagirl 430784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When they see you or want to be held, when did they start reaching out their arms towards you? </p>
